Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If an interface between first network and second network is established for aerial service authentication, then authentication capability is improved, but device complexity and network configuration complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the authentication and authorization status information from the complex network interface communication and embeds it directly into messages that can be transmitted through existing wireless communication channels. This separates the essential authentication function from the complex N26 interface requirement, allowing aerial devices to be authenticated without establishing a dedicated network interface.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent makes the existing wireless communication messages multi-functional by incorporating authentication and authorization status indicators along with validity durations into standard message exchanges. This allows existing communication protocols to serve both data transmission and authentication purposes, eliminating the need for separate authentication interfaces.
2Measurement precision
If network interface N26 is implemented for aerial device authorization, then authorization accuracy is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates due to configuration complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables the aerial device to self-report its authentication and authorization status to the network through message exchanges. The device includes validity duration information in its transmissions, allowing the network to automatically determine authorization without complex configuration procedures. This self-service approach maintains authorization accuracy while dramatically simplifying operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs authentication and authorization status determination in advance, embedding the validity duration information into messages before transmission. This preliminary action allows the network to pre-evaluate authorization status, eliminating the need for complex real-time configuration and simplifying operational procedures while maintaining precise authorization control.
3Adaptability or versatility
If traditional authentication procedures are used without validity duration indication, then compatibility with existing systems is maintained, but productivity decreases due to repeated authentication
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs authentication and determines validity duration in advance, embedding this information into the initial message exchange. This preliminary authentication action with validity duration allows the device to operate without repeated authentication procedures during the valid period, significantly improving productivity while maintaining compatibility with existing systems through standard message formats.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enhances existing authentication messages by adding a validity duration parameter without changing the fundamental message structure or protocol. This parameter addition allows the system to maintain full compatibility with existing networks while enabling more efficient authentication procedures that reduce repeated authentication requirements, thereby improving productivity.

AI summary
A wireless device receives, from a first network, one or more messages comprising: an authentication and/or authorization (AA) status of the wireless device indicating whether the wireless device is authenticated and/or authorized for an aerial service; and a parameter indicating that an interface between the first network and a second network is not supported. The wireless device sends, to a network function of the second network, a message, wherein the message comprises the AA status based on the parameter indicating that there is no interface.
